TWO DOWN. One to go. Jamaica continued its fairy tale-like climb back into CONCACAF Group Two World Cup qualifying contention, grinding out a 1-0 win over Honduras at the National Stadium last night.
Luton Shelton scored the only goal, in the 16th minute, to keep Jamaica third but in with more than a fighting chance going into next month's final semi-final round game against Canada on November 19 at 'The Office' again.
Bottom of the four-nation group two matches ago on one point, back-to-back victories over Central American duo Mexico and Honduras over the last five days have catapulted the team to a close-up third on seven points, two less than Honduras.
